Frozen

Each word made my heart drop degrees

Below seas I sank as the ice froze above me 

Gasping for air with lungs containing water

No room for breathing as the pressure became harder

The skull that held  my brain kept the thoughts locked tight

They knocked around my head until the flew out a mouth spitting water

No one could hear the words I''d finally spoken

Then my stone cold heart had somewhat broken

As the pressure pushes me deeper into the sea 

I can't breath

What is happening to me?

I can't breathe 

You're drowning me

In a frozen sea

With an ice chest where my heart used to be
